Again, from what you state . . . as you state it . . . I don't agree.

You say . .

"If the roof is loaded within it's design, insurance should pay "

I'm saying again I don't agree UNLESS that "original design" is adequate to start with. Many new buildings are not.

Regardless of any of this, an insurance policy is a written contract. It IS whatever is says it is. They differ a lot. I have six barns and none have individual insurance and none have ever been inspected. All get "blanket coverage" from my house insurance - and that coverage isn't much. More liabilty then anything else.

Now, if somebody has a huge expensive new barn built - to minimum code. And then gets replacement insurance just for that new barn . . . then I guess it's up the insurance company to closely inpect it and write the policy as they see fit. If so, the small print needs to be read closely.

Two years ago, a new and huge horse stable and indoor riding arena got built 2 miles from me. They finished it in the fall. Mid-winter just when they were getting ready to open for business - the entire building came down from snow. From what I heard, the insurance company DID pay the owner for part of it, and also sued the building contractor. I'm just going by hear-say. I do know that it got rebuilt - and then the roof structure far exceeded code instead of being the minimum.

Today's Featured Article - Restoration Story: 1929 McCormick-Deering 10-20 - by Randal Simmon. On July 4th 1998 my dad and I was sitting on the front porch when he said that he was going to sell his two 10-20's to a junk man. He said that the junk man was going to give him $500 for both of them but he hadn't received the money for them yet. So I went into the house and wrote him a check for $500 and bought them myself and said now they are mine. He had bought them about five years before thinking that he was going to restore them himself. After five years sitting in the barn, he changed h ... [Read Article]
